    Heineken Cup talks "have now ended"

    Quite. PRL are no angels and I wouldn't dream to paint them as such. However, the negotiations with ERC have failed and they went and did their own thing, securing more money for them in the process. Now the Welsh have sided with the ECC it'll surely be a matter of time before the Scots...

    Transfers 2012/13

    Whilst there are some bad pairings, pairings such as Flood and Youngs, Care and Evans, Thomas and Mieres, de Kock and Hodgson, Dickson and Lamb, Peel and Macleod will be able to stand toe to toe with O'Leary and Geraghty/iHumph. They are decent enough players but to me it's been a constant...

    Bath - London Wasps (21/04/2012, 14:15)

    If Falcons decide to go for tries and run it at Wasps they could find themselves with a chance of staying up. To say the Wasps defence was woeful would be flattering, even players like Barkley were able to break tackles and make significant ground. Wasps are in alot of trouble.

    Sir Ian McGeechan to depart as Bath's director of rugby

    BEST. NEWS. EVER. TBH since the awful performances vs Leinster and Worcester, and anyone else who happened to have "ster" in their name or who happened not to be London Irish, it has been counting down the days until McGeechan had to go. He's trashed us well and truly and I have not met a fan...

    Transfers 2012/13

    Oirish have been in decline for a while... under Booth and Catt they are sliding into oblivion. They are, ATM, the only team that has slumped to a greater extent than Bath. The Dominic Day transfer to Bath has now been confirmed by the club. I'm not sure how many other transfers there'll be as...

    Transfers rumours

    In fairness Perry hasn't been playing too badly and you do seem to be quite good at picking up some of the off the radar players that do pretty well... It's just a shame they couldn't have put the Hodgson pot towards keeping Miles.

    Transfers rumours

    I am amused by the Worcs team, they have, in the past, gone for big name singings and they do finally have some local quality but they don't half sign some rubbish... Hodgson, really!? As for this Fitzgerald malark it's ridiculous how he gets left out, he's a brilliant player who deserves to...

    most overrated player and team in the 6 nations

    I agree on that. The talk of Jonny is fair enough in my eyes as they are both fly-halves that will kick goals and for territory but create little. Farrell might have an ice-cool temperament which helps his cuase but apart from that he's really not the wunderkind he's cracked up to be. As for the...

    Bath - Gloucester (18/02/2012, 14:30)

    Phew... I was beginning to worry that Bath were going to qualify for the Heine this season. So far our only obstacles to Challenge cup entry are a load of easily loseable games and the teeny-tweeny cup... we should be safe then! It was quite a good match to watch in terms of being a hard fought...

    Transfers rumours

    According to the Bath Chronicle we're no longer interested in Jenkins. (FAIL as he can at least scrummage... unlike Flatman, Catt and Beech, who won't go far enough and as soon as there is an injury we'll have some moaning article from Geech saying how injury has hit us hard at loosehead waffle...

    Exiles duo set for Tigers move

    Indeed and even when he's playing worse than a bag of spanners he'll end up keeping Ford/12Trees/Heathcote etc out of a shirt until it's all too late. Going from Booth to Cockerill will be fun, seeing as they both come across as obnoxious muppets.

    Scotland A - England Saxons (03/02/2012, 19:30)

    That's pretty impressive for the Kane train to get taken up with the Saxons, he's definitely one for the future. He's just come back from destroying the championship with Leeds. Good to see Bendy given a shot at fullback, he deserves a bit more in the way of international recognition (during the...

    Transfers 2011/12

    Webber sure as hell ain't perfect but I'd argue that his major weakness is in the lineout, somewhere that Mears is pretty good at IMHO. u Mearsy will do the job for the next couple of seasons, should he stay, and hopefully pass down the tricks of the trade to Webber who'll be coming up to...

    Transfers rumours

    It was in the bible of signings rubbish the rugby paper apparently, seeing as it wasn't rumoured on sportnetwork it might well be true. We'd only be looking to sign someone to give us more depth, there's only three senior squad locks at Bath (...and ones going to be with England now). TehMite...

    Gary Neville to address England's rugby players

    ...well that would imply that the England rugby team is English. [/worm can open] It is good to see that SL is trying to get some emotion behind those performances, of late that's something we've come to miss.

    Transfers rumours

    Touch Caldwell and die he's our little diamond now.... ;) The Bath rumour mill seems to be fairly poor ATM, Dominic Day and Jenkins are the most credible... I heard we were looking at Morgan and circling around Brits but I don't expect much to come from those two if they're true.
